Arkos stands next to Tak and laughs.
"Twelve looks to be just the right number for a little exercise. Today is no day to die."
Judging that he has just enough time before the gnolls arrive he casts a second spell on himself then, in the blink of an eye, he transforms into a large lizard with a pebbled hide. Arkos' strangely humanoid eyes gaze out from the beast's head and tentacles sprout from its shoulders. When the gnolls close to attack (presuming they do) the tentacles viciously lash out.
